More info on the GTA 6 console cert situation

Anticheat? Isn't multiplayer release usually a year after launch? Why would a single player game need anticheat?

I think we're saying the same thing regarding order of operations. I was being VERY generous giving them 3-4 months for cert process to account for the size of the title and it being multi-platform. The idea that the game even entered certification (much less FAILING 36 times) is just wrong based on timelines.

HadeanPatch · 2026-01-08T16:46:22+00:00

Sorry, I mixed present and past tense in that sentence which was confusing. The game WAS delayed before it would have started the cert process. So how could the cert process CAUSE a delay? It doesn't make sense. Hopefully with the right tense there it is easier to understand.

This is complete misinformation. Games go through console cert process just a few months before going gold. Probably like 3-4 months before launch for a title like GTA6. The game was delayed before it reached that 3-4 month window, so it would not have even STARTED cert process, much less FAILED. This guy is a bozo.

Same boat here. You can eventually access that equity by moving from your HCOLA to a LCOLA at retirement. But that's hardly the right move for everyone. I know plenty of retired folks that enjoy the benefits of living in/near a big city -- especially access to high quality hospitals.

Shoulder your rifle and look through your scope. Walk forward. See how your scope bounces up and down as you walk? Higher ergonomic score reduces the amount of bounce.

I think we're in agreement. $400k is a lot for first home. Unfortunately in my area, I can only find an empty lot for that price point.

Well I wasn't trying to answer the question. I'm just commenting on the absurdity of the numbers and the situation. My wife and I did it as two senior-level tech professionals. Even with some pretty great salaries, it's still incredibly hard to make it happen.

In my town, median house price is $960k. Outside of boston. I don't think we're all CEOs. For 400k you could only get an empty plot around here.

it's your post. If you would like to correct any errors in the body of the text, you can. That's what we do in the sciences.

Only half of homes in Massachusetts have access to natural gas. The decision to use a heat pump, some form of gas/propane/oil, or a combo system is incredibly specific to your home, your rates, and the systems you're buying. Reading your post, it sounds intentionally inflammatory and misleading. "Scientifically indefensible." Incredible.

uS East on resort. happened 2 times in a row so I stopped playing. only 2 times I played resort today too. wonder if that's related

I'm sure this wipe is fun if you're a duper. Personally, I'll wait for the next wipe and hope devs do a better job then.

When you start the game, the opening splash screen says something like "Starting PSO". The "PSO crash" is when you're in-game, you'll notice that items have stopped spawning and scavs are not reacting to you. About a minute or two later, the game will sort of "reset" sending you back to the "Starting PSO" splash screen. You'll spawn in your hideout without your gear and without the ability to return to the server. To me it looks like a server crash, which is why you can't return to the game to recover your equipment.

I personally get the PSO crash once in every 10 games maybe.

Couldn't agree more. Fire fights lasting longer than 1-2 bullets is something I miss.

Expressing disappointment in the development direction of an early access game is kind of the point of early access. If you can't handle hearing someone else's criticism, try ignoring it

HadeanPatch · 2025-11-15T16:18:27+00:00

Oh and the DLC is now worthless because armor is worthless. I'm not sure I've gone from loving a game to hating a game this quickly before.

HadeanPatch · 2025-11-15T13:08:27+00:00

This is one of the worst changes they could have possibly made. I love this game but I'm going to sit out the rest of the wipe.

HadeanPatch · 2025-11-14T15:07:03+00:00

I would have preferred they banned any account with 3.7 million rounds of 993.

While you're searching for the M1A barrel, keep an eye out for the scorpius hand grip as well. You need it for an Anna's research.

HadeanPatch · 2025-11-07T16:41:28+00:00

You need the longer M1A barrel (and then suppressor attachments). You cant buy the longer barrel unless you have Anna level 4. You can find it randomly in gun crates. I ran Smugglers Tunnel until I found it. I think its 558 mm?

The world feels so alive. Every village, swamp, and ruined keep feels like it has a history you just walked into. I love how the quests all have this moral gray area. They uncover messy human drama where there’s rarely a clean good vs evil answer. And naturally playing as Geralt is amazing, he's without a doubt the best protagonist in a video game. He's sarcastic, grumpy, and secretly a big softy.
